BMW wheels on Mercedes?

I have a set of Hoosier autocross tires in the garage on wheels from an '00 M roadster. Tire sizes are same width as my C55. This is getting tempting. Where can I find info on bolt circle, offset and bore to see if the wheels would fit my Benz?

I'm finding the same thing and it looks like there's not a fit:

Maybe that's a good thing . . . .

Thanks for the help!

That would look ghey. The 18s on the C55 are nice, and why go down to 17s?

Gay for daily driver, but having an already mounted set of stickey tires for autocross weekends sure would have been nice!
